 Venn Diagram
• A visual tool which was developed first by
John Venn in the 1880s.
• In a Venn diagram, sets are represented
by shapes; usually circles or ovals.
• The elements of a set are labeled within
the circle.
 Example 1
Use Venn diagram to represent the following
sets.
Set U = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10}
Set A = {2, 4, 6, 8, 10}
Set B = {5, 6, 7, 8, 9}
 Example 2
Use Venn diagram to represent set and set
operations.
Set A = {2, 5, 6, 8, 9}
Set B = {1, 3, 7, 9}
Set C = {4, 7, 8, 9, 10}
 Example 3
Sixty students of Grade 7 – Charity were
asked if they have pet animals at home.
Forty of the students have dogs and thirty-
five have cats.

12, 13, 14, 15}
A = {1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13, 15}
B = {3, 6, 9, 12, 15}
